Billings wedding photography

I was so humbled and honored to receive once again "Wedding Photographer of the Year" as well as "Commercial Photographer of the Year" with the Professional Photographers of Southwest Florida and "Outstanding Service Award" with the Florida Professional Photographers.  This was my last year with the PPSWF and FPP since I've moved out west, so I'm happy to go out with a bang!  I told my husband I should get a REALLY big bonus now from my boss (yours truly) and my office Christmas party (consisting of me, the cat, and the dog) is going to be epic, Haha... He's not amused and probably really worried. ...

There's a blizzard going on outside my window, letting me know that fall is long over!  But I'm still going to post these fall engagement photos, too pretty not to share.  :)  Last month I had the opportunity to photograph this beautiful couple off Chief Joseph Scenic Highway (I can see why it's called that, it has become one of my favorite locations!).  Since I've been in Florida most of my photography career, I believe this is my first ever engagement session in the fall.  I love autumn and the changing of colors!  It made for a perfect backdrop for this lovely couple. So here are a few of my favorites......

I finally got the results back from the competition I entered last month with my local photography guild back in Florida.   I’ve enjoyed being a part of the local SWFL chapter (Professional Photographers of Southwest Florida) of the PPA and FPP for the past 4 or 5 years.

Being a part of this group has helped me in all areas of my photography business...but being a part of the competitions we held 3 times a year, definitely helped with me with my skill level. It also allowed...

Finally catching up on some blogging here and wanted to start with this gorgeous wedding! Tabitha and Bill's wedding day started out getting ready at the West Bay Club, where their ceremony and reception was held too.  Their ceremony was poolside close to sunset.  For their portraits we utilized all the grounds!  I was super happy that they decided to do some additional portraits on another day so that we could take our time and get lots of variety.  I highly recommend this, especially if you're planning a full and busy day of events.   Or do a First Look. ;) I mentioned before when I posted...

So my husband and I have officially moved to northwest Wyoming!  I've been out here about a month, getting us moved into our new place and getting the lay of the land.  I must say, I'm in love.  It's amazing to walk out my front door and be surrounded by mountains.  A little different than Florida. ;) (My husband and me in our front yard) (Our dog Baylie isn't too excited about the scarf I made her wear, but despite that she does like it out here...my cat is another story) I got a chance to announce it on my facebook page, but didn't get to blog anything on here.  These past couple months...
